Travel

I know I've mentioned before how much I love my job, but let me tell you one of the reasons why I think it's perfect.  I work on contract so technically I'm self-employed but I have a good relationship with the firm I work with and I think as long as I don't massively screw up I'm here for the long haul.  I don't get vacation or health benefits or any of that good stuff.  Basically, if I'm not at work I'm not getting paid.  Essentially, I am on contract with one hospital/job and then once I'm there I go to another.  It hasn't happened yet but maybe sometime in the future there won't be another job to go to right away, so I'll have time off and with that time off I'll travel.  Or I'll take a break in between contracts.  At least that's my goal, to work like hell for most of the year and then try to get a chunk of time off so I can travel for a bit.  This year the goal is to try to go to Cuba and hopefully next year Indonesia.  I've also put together an insanely strict budget for this year so having money to do these things should not be too difficult.  We shall see though.
